Wish Someone Would Care -- Irma Thomas

Cry, cry

Sitting home alone, thinkin about my past
Wonderin how I made it, and how long it's gonna last
Success has come to lots of them, and failure's always there
Time, time waits for no one and I wish, how I wish someone would care

Some folks think you're happy, when you wear your smile
What about your tribulations, and all, all of your trials
Smiles, smiles hide a lots a things
The good, the bad, the hurt, all of this goes too
And I wish, how I wish, how I wish someone would care
I wish someone would care
Don't you think someone should care?
Ah don't you think someone should care?
Sit down and think about yourself
Ah don't you think someone should care?
MMMM don't you think someone should care?
Ah don't you think someone should care?

Stardust -- Willie Nelson (Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, et al)

And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that were apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust
Of yesterday
The music
Of the years
Gone by

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely nights
Dreaming of a song.
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you.
When our love was new, and each kiss an inspiration.
But that was long ago, and now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song.
Beside the garden wall, when stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses grew.
Though I dream in vain, in my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of loves refrain.

Dedicated, with much love, to my beautiful strong proud wife:

"Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" -- U2

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I...that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need...I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me - when - I -
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me...

Where are we now?
I've still got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone...

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

One minute:

Let It Go -- Tim McGraw

I’ve been caught sideways out here on the crossroads
Trying to buy back the pieces I lost of my soul
It’s hard when the devil won’t get off your back
It’s like carrying around the past in a hundred pound sack

{Chorus}
Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah

Skeletons and Ghosts are hiding in the shadows
Threatening me with all the things that they know
Choices and mistakes, they all know my name
But I’m through holding in and holding onto all that pain

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
Got No more tears to cry
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah

I know I know I know I’ve been forgiven
I know I know I know I’m gonna start living
Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Next minute.

I'll Stand By You -- The Pretenders

Oh, why you look so sad?
The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
But don't, be ashamed to cry,
Let me see you through
'Cause I've been in the dark side too
When the night falls on you,
And you don't know what to do
Nothing you confess,
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you

So, if you're mad, get mad,
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well, I'm a lot like you
When you're standing
At the crossroads,
But don't know which path to choose
Let me come along,
'Cause even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you

Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you,
I'll stand by you

And when, when the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone,
You won't be on your own

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you

Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you,
I'll stand by you

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you

I'm not trying to make sense. I'm trying to be truthful. When the truth makes sense, then I will understand reality. Oh, how I long for that day.

Bill, you are killin me.

Lean on Me -- Bill Withers

Sometimes in our lives
we all have pain
we all have sorrow
but if we are wise
we know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me
when you're not strong
and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it won't be long
'till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on

Please
swallow your pride
if I have things
you need to borrow
for no one can fill
those of your needs
that you wont let show

just call on me brother
when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me
when youre not strong
and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it wont be long
'till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on

you just call on me brother
when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on

If
there is a load
you have to bear
that you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
if you just call mee

Won't you just call me?
If you need a friend
Call me
Call me uh-uh
Call me
If you need a friend
Call me
If you ever need a friend
Call me
Call meee
Call me
Call me
Call me
If you ever need a friend

You know what you got to do yeah!

The Same Love That Made Me Laugh -- Bill Withers

Your love is like a a chunk of gold
Hard to gain, and hard to hold

Like a rose that's soft to touch
Love has gone, and it hurts so much

Well and Why…
Must the same love that made me laugh
Make me cry?

Well now you think of love as sitting on a mountain
Think of it as being a great big rock
Won't you think before you started to roll it down
Because once you start it, you can't make it stop

I've given all I have to give
And if you don't want me
I don't want to live

Well and Why…
Must the same love that made me laugh…
Why you wanna make me cry? (x5)

Why you wanna make me lay in my pillow
Just cryin' like a weeping willow

Why you wanna make me cry? (x4)

Why you wanna make me mess in my pillow
I'm just cryin' like a weeping willow

Why you wanna make me cry? (x3)

[Deuce]

usin me.

Use Me -- Bill Withers

'My friends feel it's their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me
All you want to do is use me
But my answer, yeah to all that use me stuff
I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
You just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

My brother sit me right down and he talked to me
He told me that I ought not to let you just walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well
Yeah, but when our talk was through
I said, brother, if you only knew
You'd wish that you were in my shoes
You just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

Sometimes, it's true
You really do abuse me
You get me in a crowd of high-class people
And then you act real rude to me
But, oh baby, baby, baby, baby,
When you love me, I can't get enough
I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Girl, you just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Talkin' 'bout you usin' people
It all depends on what you do
It ain't too bad the way you're usin' me
'Cause I sure am usin' you to do the things you do'
to do the things you do''
